NOTES:

Program AE, Effects and Shutter Effects can be changed during recording or during Record- Standby.

Some modes of Program AE and Shutter Effects cannot be used during Night-Scope.

When a subject is too bright or reflective, a vertical streak may appear (smear phenomenon). Smear phenomenon tends to occur when “SPORTS” or mode of “SHUTTER 1/500 and 1/4000” is selected.

EFFECT

OFF: Disables the function. (Factory-preset)

SEPIA : Recorded scenes have a brownish tint like old photos. Combine this with the Cinema mode for a classic look.

MONOTONE : Like classic black and white films, your footage is shot in B/W.

CLASSIC : Gives recorded scenes a strobe effect.

STROBE : Your recording looks like a series of consecutive snapshots.

SHUTTER

OFF: Disables the function. (Factory-preset)

SHUTTER 1/50: The shutter speed is fixed at 1/50th of a second. Black bands that usually appear when shooting a TV screen become narrower.

SHUTTER 1/120: The shutter speed is fixed at 1/120th of a second. The flickering that occurs when shooting under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapour lamp is reduced.

SHUTTER 1/500/SHUTTER 1/4000: These settings allow fast-moving images to be captured one frame at a time, for vivid, stable slow-motion playback by fixing shutter speed variables. Use these settings when an automatic adjustment does not work well, using SPORTS mode. The faster the shutter speed, the darker the picture becomes. Use the shutter function under good lighting conditions.
